The game is supposed to have 18 000 000 000 000 000 000 planets in it. That's an 18 followed by 18 zeros. So lets say every star in the game has 10 planets. That's still 1 800 000 000 000 000 000 stars. If we say that each galaxy is on average the size of the milky way containing 100 billion stars (100 000 000 000) and we do some simple division, we have 18 000 000 galaxies in this game. That's 18 million galaxies.
The goal is to get to the center of the starting galaxy. So it only seems natural to assume that there is intergalactic travel. And if you can travel intergalatically, that makes getting to the center of the universe a kind of inconsequential point. So it doesn't seem much of a stretch to come up with the idea that once you get to the center of the galaxy you unlock intergalactic travel. Sean Murray has dropped hints about this. I forget which video I saw him say this in but he said something very close to...
You think the game is on one scale, then suddenly you pull back and you realize how much grander it is
Not an exact quote, but that's essentially what he said. Besides, it kind of makes sense just from a gameplay point of view. You take all this time, traveling all this way. The reward is a hyperdrive that allows you to travel just about anywhere instantly, including other galaxies. I think that make sense. Because what if you want to go back to a world you found near the beginning of the game. Do you have to make the long journey back step by step? Unlikely. But of course, this is all just speculation.
Just curious what u neckbeards think.
Nolan Wright
>reading novels.
Andrew White
this is much great than reading novels, yes.
Eli Turner
...
Adrian Collins
No one wants to talk vidyas?
Wyatt Price
What I'm afraid of (and I belive everyone) is of having that shit ton of places to be, but to them being repetitive with the time. (sorry for bad english i'm kinda drunk)
Josiah Jackson
thats what I think will end up ruining it, and no sweat im high on some potcake.
Adam Walker
space minecraft and it got fucking delayed
Jaxson Edwards
I think that if you wanna enjoy this game for real you'll need to stay as away as you can from the internet talks about it, the more you know the less you'll discover.
Alexander Mitchell
>2016 >being able to avoid spoilers of any kind
yeah, right.
Jaxson Wilson
haha i can't help myself but you're right. damnit
Gavin Myers
Everything about this games seems like bullshit
Noah Flores
whys that?
Bentley Wright
Im also hyped as fuck about Cuphead, the developers don't say anything about it since the past e3
Alexander Diaz
It seems like there's a lot of potential for not much to happen. Like, you could be searching for ages until you eventually find somebody. And then the cunt will probably kill you. Hooking up with your mates online is going to be literally impossible.
Asher Peterson
Buying the hype this hard.
$20 says by the fifth planet you'll have seen just about everything the game has to offer and from then on you'll just run into slightly alter permutations of what you've already seen.
Sebastian Watson
hellyes fucking cuphead! This is true but multiplayer isn't there main focus. Though it probably should have been.
I dig the ambition though.
Benjamin Flores
I don't know about you guys but I HAVE A MIGHTY NEED FOR THE LAST GUARDIAN.
Benjamin Miller
I wouldn't fucking doubt it lolol.. But its only $60. Only a broke fag would cry about taking a chance on a game they are interested in.
Christopher Gonzalez
this
Caleb White
Maybe. He said that he wants to incorporate customization in order to make people not feel the need to mod as much as he's worried it may break the game due to how it runs. My personal guess is once you reach the center you get your own galaxy will full dev tools to fuck around with it however you want
Ryan Adams
Who the fuck pays for the shit products that are released today..
Last thing I spent money on was bf4. It was unplayable at launch. It's great now but back then holy fuck naw.
Just pirate everything.
Kevin Thomas
that is the best case scenario imo
Brody Ward
if everyone stole everything we would all have nothing, young padawan.
Jordan Perez
I like to pirate everything, and only pay for it if I really like it.
Jonathan Hall
>Buy a shitty game >Surprised when it's shitty >Mad at every game developer for his own idiocy
Cameron Gray
How? I used to have a chipped PS1 with hundreds of games. I thought it would be pretty impossible these days, what with all the consoles connected to the net 24/7. PS or M$ would be able to tell and ban you and/or render your console useless.
Isaiah Phillips
That's the way to be
There are ways. But this pleb probably means on a PC.
William Long
Kyle, is that you?
Oliver Allen
No I'm sorry =[
Samuel Phillips
No I'm sorry =[
Has anyone seen kyle?
(sub for more content like dat)
Bentley Gray
So you are saying steam is the way to go for cheap gaming?
I have a laptop I could pair my ps4 controller with. I've never used steam before. Is it worth signing up?
Charles Jenkins
Right after launch they're gonna get a huge amount of complaints about people not being able to play with their friends and whatnot. So they will probably just add some kind of party/buddy system once you reach the centre of the main galaxy.
Adrian Robinson
nah the customer support isnt worth the deals. its why they are losing money
Oliver Ramirez
Literally or practically?
Grayson Anderson
I miss Kyle, australian motherfucker
Levi Long
they've said stuff like " if you blow a hole in the ground and someone else comes to that planet. They wont see that hole." So idk how that will work.
Luke Torres
Non poorfags
Evan Powell
Steam as a platform, is great. Good sales are few and far between though. There are resale sites such as g2a that have really cheap game codes for steam.
Cooper Thompson
he clearly said literally...are you ok?
James Morgan
nice satanic trips.
This fag said PC gaming So, how do I play games that I can download from torrents etc? What platform should I be looking to use? I want to be like this guy
Liam Murphy
I thought it was the opposite. I remember them saying they wanted to have a "breadcrumb" thing going on where you could see what people left behind on planets.
Chase Ortiz
He also said it doesn't matter because it will be almost impossible to find any other people due to how large the planet is. I think he said it was something like a 2% chance of ever running into anyone if 1,000,000 people were always on and you played every day for 100 years
Jason Peterson
*How large the universe is and how large each individual planet is
supposedly even one planet would take weeks to run around
Brandon Hughes
This is gonna flop like Spore
Kayden Green
>inb4 delayed again
Cameron Carter
You can always play pirated games offline
Christopher Jenkins
i can see it happening
Carson Lee
yeah but how?? buy a ps4 to chip it and keep it offline?
Daniel Garcia
unique dialogue, interesting characters, good storytelling all get lost when all you have is minecraft stretching on endlessly
bet it is shit
encouraging people to waste time and money, good use of resources
James Lopez
Most likely. All that potential on a cliff. I just hope the game has some fun mechanic that adds (somewhat) endless replayability.
Austin Lopez
isnt it true that %90 of the planets are barren?
Aaron Taylor
minecraft did well though....
Aaron Scott
Not that I know of, no. There gonna be some spore-like creature shit going on that's procedurally generated based on what planet they are on.
Logan Stewart
will they have penis?
Sebastian Peterson
minecraft let you build, you had a home and you made it
there is no hook in this game, and it ends when you find the center... you will want to walk away
Caleb Scott
Yeah, but Minecraft was half singleplayer and half multiplayer. Also the modding scene is huge because of java
Jaxon Young
you can live in a hole in no mans sky thats everyone who likes spaces dream fuggin idits
Colton Lee
yes
Julian Lee
I hope its nudes
Joshua Young
...
Alexander Allen
It looks pretty cool in theory. The only problem I have is that even though there will be an almost endless amount of planets to explore the plants/animals/scenery will probably start getting reused if you explore enough. They may be able to use an algorithm to generate planets with different sizes/climates/orbits etc. but I doubt they could generate different kinds of plants and animals.
Oliver Rogers
That will be the games downfall..
Michael Robinson
Last guardian will never live up to the hype (if it even gets released)
Zachary Fisher
if they don't take chances how will they push through?
Aaron Russell
But hey remember Spore?
That game did a hell of a good job randomizing planets and shit even the creatures! I don't think I ever saw the same one twice in a play through
Kevin Allen
TROO
and thats some old techhhhhhh
Cooper Carter
i hope this game comes out riddled with bugs to make good youtube content with
Ethan Nguyen
hey me to, sub4sub
Jaxon Jones
>18000000000000000000 planets >120mb for each planet >2.16 × 10^15 terabytes
????????????
>20mb per planet >1.8 × 10^14 terabytes
?????????????????????????????????????????
Aaron King
sure whats ur YT?
Joseph Ramirez
ikr
Carson King
I wonder how long it took to copy paste 12 maps 18 000 000 000 000 000 000 times
Benjamin Cruz
Would have fucking loved something like this in Elite Dangerous. Reach the Center, get the power to warp back, or anywhere else you want.
Owen Howard
Procedural generated. 100MB of code to generate billions and billions of variations of the same shit. Very small size for shitloads of content.
Lincoln Nelson
The amount of planets is most likely bullshit. Even 10 million would be too much for any sane person to explore.
Dylan Ross
Well the game has been delayed enough times... so it must take a while. Mashing that Ctrl+V all day every day.
Brody White
Saying this game has 18 000 000 000 000 000 000 planets in it is as retarded as saying Minecraft has an endless amount of planets in it since it makes a new one everytime you start.
Nolan Flores
ugh, i remember right after watching the first e3 trailer for fallout 4, i went onto Sup Forums and got the ending spoiled for me.
Charles Cook
>1.8 × 10^14 terabytes >180 billion petabytes >assuming each petabyte drive weighs half a pound >90 billion pounds >nine times the weight of water added directly to animal products per year
????????????????????????????
Luke Hughes
theres a link in the OP leading to my channel my doood =]
Samuel Morris
the hype is real
Jack Baker
math lol
Evan Robinson
ok sweet ill sub and you can sub to me, we could do a collab. i do news about the Argentinian soccer team.
Luis Parker
sweet sounds good haha
ill sub back asap
Connor Cook
Sounds fucking boring. If they're putting all the effort into putting meat into those environments and visual wank, then it's going to be another Uncharted or something. Pretty and plays like cock moles.
Jose Jackson
That sounds right up his alley, with him talking in english about video games and you covering the argentinian soccer team. lol
Dylan Reyes
>The game is supposed to have 18 000 000 000 000 000 000 planets in
So it's basically Elite: Dangerous?
Gavin Smith
cuck
Cameron Smith
>there are no galaxies, only universes >the goal of getting into the center is not an official goal but some shit someone made up
Get your shit right dude
Owen Rodriguez
neither of those statements are true.
Jordan Bailey
To add to this, in the center of the "galaxy" is a black hole, lets you travel to other "galaxies", but actually the galaxies are different universes, like maps and worlds in Witcher 3.
Zachary Cooper
Yep. And Star Wars. And Batman V Superman. And numerous episodes of GoT and Walking Dead etc etc etc.
Fuck Sup Forums and fuck the internet.
Matthew Richardson
Actually both of those things are straight from an interview I also remember watching some months back with the head guy for this game.
